Agency Overview

Introduction

A trust agency is a trust relationship established between you and other companies, Huawei Cloud accounts or cloud services. If you have purchased different types of resources on Huawei Cloud, you can create a trust agency on IAM to entrust a professional company, account, or cloud service to perform secure, efficient O&M on your behalf. The entrusted account, company, or cloud service can perform resource O&M on your behalf based on assigned permissions.

Agency Type

• Account Agency: An account agency enables you to delegate another account to implement O&M on your resources based on assigned permissions.
• Service Agency: Huawei Cloud services interwork with each other, and some cloud services are dependent on other services. To delegate a cloud service to access other services and perform resource O&M, create a service agency for the service.

Advantages

• Flexible management: You can grant permissions to an account agency or a cloud service agency, and delegate some services to professional companies.
• Security and reliability: The delegated party can only use resources based on the permissions granted, ensuring the security of accounts, data, and resources. The delegating party can create, modify, or cancel a delegation at any time to flexibly control resource access.
